For those of you who enjoyed my last RPG Maker effort Ice Cream Christmas, I've begun development on an all-new game.
The game is called "Journey to the End of the Game", and is based on a concept I've been developing for a while now. It is satire of typical RPG cliches and character archetypes. The plot synopsis is as such: Game Man, a carefree and spirited youth who lives with his father in a small house in Begin Town is thrust into a world of adventure and really stupid shit. Along the way he joins forces with several crazy characters. Vagina Femalebreasts is a prostitute with the ability to toss discarded tampons at her enemies. Worthless Stupidcrap is a heavy drug-addict and is constantly fucking up at everything he does. Satan Badguy is a psychopathic killer hellbent on destroying the world, but is he really a villain? All this and more can be found in "Journey to the End of the Game", which can be yours for only 5 easy payments of $69.95*.
*may be subject to increase exponentially
I am designing all of the main graphics for the game, and to trounce tedium I have also ripped a bunch of sprites from FF Legend II. Also I will be scoring the game with numerous tracks from my discography. So yeah, I'm pretty much doing everything.
BUT, if you would like to be involved, be it you want a cameo or want to help me with the game in some way, post in this thread and I'll see what I can come up with for you.
I will keep this thread updated with my progress. And now some teaser screenshots! Note that note all the sprites are complete, and I'm using the default RPG Maker sprites temporarily for the unfinished sprites.

Great news guys! The guys over at Buttwinkle Game Studios of America have decided to sponsor my game! I'm honored to be working with one of my favorite Japanese game software companies. You can all rest assured that the game will be at least twice as good with the help of good old Buttwinkle!
In other news, I've commissioned none other than MORGAN FREEMAN! You might know him from a little movie called EVAN ALMIGHTY... and if you haven't that's okay because I don't think he's that big in the states yet. If you want to listen to my telephone interview with Mr. Freeman, go ahead and click play on this:

Thank God.
i feel like i can identify with the main character

theres a game man in all of us.......
A special treat for all my fans! Click here (http://hlg.furfag.com/buttwinkle/TITLE.jpg) to view the title screen for my new game. Due to restrictions in my contract with Buttwinkle Studios, I cannot show this image directly on the forum, as it is top-secret and knowledge of its existence (pre launch date) would most likely ignite a spark in the gaming community so huge that the production of the game would have to be canceled. As such, I have provided my faithful fans a direct link to the image, on the conditions that they do not tell or show anyone who isn't directly related or involved with the making of this game.
Before you view this image, it is advised that you take note that it is still being tweaked, and I may make some minor font adjustments in the future.
Good news! After a 15-hour long staff meeting with the Buttwinkle of America executives, I have been allowed to add two new features to the game. These features have been requested since day one, and you can probably guess what they are without even reading this, as they have been the most popular feature requests on all the user polls.
The first feature as you've most likely guessed by now is the ability to use up to 2 different forms of currency to buy items within the game. As usual Pennycoins are the main currency, in addition we have added an exciting new unit called "Dollarmoneys". What would be the difference, you ask? Well, you're just going to have to wait til the game's tentatively scheduled Fall 2011 release to find out!
The second new feature, of course, is the improved targeting system in battles. While the previous targeting engine was perfect in every way, there is a motto here at Buttwinkle that there is always room for improvement.
That being said, I must warn you all that due to the heavy amount of revision we see from the playtesting process, there is only a very slim chance that these features will be included in the final version of the game.
Also, I've been asked by the guys over at Buttwinkle to promote their new charity, the Buttwinkle International Treament program for Children at Home. For only a little bit of your time and a small donation, you can bring a smile to a child's face. Donate now, fellow BITCHes!
i donate my pitance
I will be in the game
also say goodbye, French Fry

also, if you want to have a cameo but can't think of a role for yourself, i can put your name on one of the graves in a cemetary. if you want to do this make sure you tell me what name you want in the game.
I will be the prostitute king
